The Energy Networks Association (ENA) will support the Street Lighting and Smart Controls Council launched today at Sydney Town Hall.

The Council will be overseen by the Institute of Public Works Engineering Australasia (IPWEA) and deliver a two-year Street Lighting and Smart Controls (SLSC) program aimed at accelerating the deployment of LED street lighting and smart controls systems.

ENA Chief Executive Officer, John Bradley, said the SLSC program is timely given the increasing use of electricity networks as platforms for smart technology.
